Signing Up

Takes 2-3 minutes to register

No Facebook registration

Must be 18 years old and above to register

Only gender, sexual preference, email address, birthday are asked

Quiz takes around 7-10 minutes to answer

Signing up is quite easy on AsiaCharm. You only need to provide your birthday, email address, nominated password, gender, and sexual preferences. After you fill in that information, you are good to go. It is quite straightforward with no fuzz.

However, after signing up, you aren’t redirected to the site immediately. Instead, there is a three-part quiz you can opt to answer or skip. Skipping still requires you to go through all of the questions so it would be much more efficient just to answer it.

The entire quiz takes around 7-10 minutes to answer. But by accomplishing this quiz, you will be able to optimise the search and match recommendation.

Quiz #1: “About Your Date”

This is a total of nine questions that asks about what you are looking for. First, you’d have to choose what kind of relationship you are looking for: good with kids, a long term relationship, a pen friend, online friendship, who already has kids, marriage, casual relationship, and online flirting.

A total of 13 questions, you are asked about your location, your birthday, height, body type, marital status, the preferred number of children you want to have, education level, religion, occupation, and smoking and drinking habits.

At the very end of this portion, you are given a chance to describe yourself in your own words. A tip: make it short and sweet but still shows off your personality the best. Then, you can add your photo. Choose a good, well-lit photo.

Quiz #3: "Match Suggestions"

The third and final section isn’t a quiz type like the first two. Rather than asking questions, you are presented with photos of members. There, you’d be able to select the ones you like the most.

After you choose, the site comes up with match suggestions that are generated by the site’s algorithm based on your preference.

Making Contact

Buy credits to use premium contacting features

Get notified if those you’ve added as Favourites had uploaded new photos

Send Flowers and Presents to charm other members

Send winks for free

Statistics are organised for easier browsing

AsiaCharm offers a bunch of features and functionalities for you to be able to meet and mingle with other members. You can browse profiles, send winks, and add to your Favourites list for free.

However, the site works in a credit type of system. It does not offer any membership or monthly subscription. Instead, you must buy credits to avail of premium services such as Instant Messenger, sending flowers and presents, and setting up a date with a member you like. You can also set your account to automatically purchase credits when the remaining balance is five or lower.

One weakness of the dating site which might also be one of its strengths is the detailedness of the profiles. Because every profile is comprehensive with professional photos, their authenticity might come into question.

Indeed, we have received a huge number of likes and messages in our profiles from dozens of beautiful ladies, all claiming to be interested in us. But while that may be flattering, it would be highly unusual since our profiles were just created a day ago and we haven’t even uploaded one single picture yet.

Nevertheless, what makes AsiaCharm efficient is the way it has your statistics arranged for you in one corner. There is a shelf titled “Statistics” on the right hand of your profile which indicates just how many messages, emails, visitors, people you’ve added to favourites, flowers, and presents, contact requests, and meeting requests you have received. You can find all that information very easily.

Profile Quality

Send chats, images, videos on the Instant Messenger feature found on profiles

Requires ID Verification for members

Verification takes up to 72 hours

Profiles on AsiaCharm are quite detailed. All profiles have well-lit and professionally taken photos, fleshed out from head to toe. Everyone on this site appears to be a validated member.

While that might sound like a good thing, it might trigger some fishy alarms as well. In every dating site, there’s bound to be a profile or two that looks bare and with details missing or completely lacking. The absence of that particular profile might trip some people up.

But the site takes measures to ensure that all its members are authentic through the ID verification. Here, you simply need to submit a scanned picture of your valid ID. The entire process takes 72 hours; once approved, you will have a green "Verified" button displayed on your profile.

Browsing through the profiles, which you can do without buying credits, can be interesting. It is quite pleasing to the eyes to see every profile with beautiful people.

Their occupation along with their birthday, height, eye and hair colour, fluency in English, among others are listed on the profile. There is also a side chat box where you can instantly send them a message and gifts. But you’d have to buy credits for that.

Note, however, that while you can enjoy yourself with this, you still have to practice online safety precautions to keep yourself from being scammed and/or catfished.

App

Only available for Android users

Free to download on Google Play

90% of the members access AsiaCharm via the mobile app

Perfect alternative for on-the-go users

Bears no resemblance design-wise to the website

Contains the same features of its website counterpart

The mobile app version of AsiaCharm came as a surprise to us. With the exception of the name, the app bears no traces of its desktop counterpart design-wise.

Seemingly, the app version did not make use of the website's theme colours. It uses gold and black instead as its logo motif, and totally removed the main maroon colour of the website.

The app has reinvented the branding and the look of AsiaCharm. It might have actually beaten the website in terms of accessibility and aesthetics.

While it might not hold a candle to today’s design and trends, however, it looks much neater and more compact. The app basically shares the same features that the website version has. It is quite perfect for users who are always on the go and don’t want to lug around their laptops all day. In fact, most members access the site via mobile.

You may download the app on Google Play. The app’s weakest point might be its lack of iOS counterpart. So for iPhone users, better luck next time.

Real Life Review

“I have always been attracted to Asian women. There’s something so alluring about them. So when I heard about AsiaCharm, I immediately hopped on board. The first thing I’ve noticed was how much care there seems to be when it comes to the registration of new members. You need to get verified first and answer a bunch of questions. That made me feel safe. I also like the straightforwardness of the site. It is classy and has an app, too! It provides a whole lot of features to make sure that I get to meet and mingle with other people. So, I decided to purchase some credits since the interaction is limited when you don’t have any. So far, I haven’t met anyone yet. But I’ve only been using this site for 2 weeks. I am enjoying myself and I am not yet giving up my hope of finding the one here.” - Sam, 32

Design and Usability

AsiaCharm charms its way right into our hearts with the simple and easy to navigate user interface, without compromising aesthetics and elegance.

Keeping to its romantic roots, it uses a rich yet muted maroon shade as its theme colour. Although the site offers a lot of features, you will not be overwhelmed since everything is arranged in an organised manner.

On the top bar, you can click on “Contest,” “Search,” “Face,” “Messages,” and “Credit.” On the right-hand corner, there is a small shelve dedicated to your statistics. That is the folder which contains how many messages, mails, profile visitors, likes, and many more you have received and sent. All you need and will ever need are neatly arranged and easy to access.

While it might seem outdated compared to the current dating sites, what AsiaCharm offers is the sense of nostalgia. Plus points for it being user-friendly to anyone—may it be a tech-savvy millennial or a much older person. Indeed, this dating platform, while it may lack the flashy design of newer sites, is still pleasing to the eyes.

Is AsiaCharm expensive or cheap?

You may use a number of features that AsiaCharm offers by spending the virtual currency called 'credits'. They are not real money, do not have monetary value, and can only be used on the website to pay for their services.

You can purchase 20 credits for only 9.99$. All prices are set in USD. Here are the functionalities you can avail with your credits:

Live chat (2 credits per minute with one particular member);

Chat stickers (5 credits; you can send stickers during the live chat session);

Chat photos (10 credits to send a photo);

Mail photos (you can send photos in letters free of charge);

Chat videos (50 credits; you can open a video in the live chat but please be aware that you’ll be charged immediately after clicking the link);

Sending letters (10 credits for the first letter, 30 credits for each consecutive letter to one particular member; you can send a letter to your favourite member by choosing the option 'Send Mail' on their profile, the letter should contain no more than 3500 and no less than 150 symbols);

Opening letters (the first letter is free to open; 10 credits will be deducted for opening all consequent letters from one particular member);

Opening photos in the letters (10 credits per photo);

Opening video attachments in letters (50 credits per video; please be aware that you’ll be charged immediately after clicking on it);

Profile videos (25 credits; you can find it directly on the member’s profile; you’ll be charged immediately after clicking on it);

Uploading your own profile video (100 credits; you can upload a video to your profile with the maximum limit for the file size as 100 MB);

Real gifts (the cost for each gift is mentioned in the gift catalog, the delivery fee is 100 credits);

Make a request for a real meeting (625 credits; the fee doesn’t include your travel expenses and translation services);

Make a request for a member’s personal contact details (free of charge; it requires to spend on the communication with a member 3000 credits);

Also, auto-rebilling is an option for automatic credits purchasing. Once your balance runs 5 credits or fewer, the system makes the purchase and replenishes your credits balance automatically.

This feature is available after your first purchase. Do take note that this option is disabled for all accounts by default, and only you can enable it on your profile.

Special Features

AsiaCharm offers a lot of variety when it comes to its features. Here are the functionalities that aim to fully maximise your time on the site:

Contest

Contest works sort of like a virtual beauty contest. Members get to vote on who’s the most attractive. The people with the highest number of votes win and their pictures would be posted for everyone to see. They would have better chances of finding more matches since their profiles are displayed at the very top of this page.

Faces

Faces work by presenting you with different photos of members. You can either “like” or “skip” them according to your preferences. If you scroll down at the bottom, there are also shortcut buttons for chatting, sending winks, sending presents, and adding to favourites that particular member you found interesting.

Set Up a Date

When you are both ready to take your virtual relationship to the next step, the site’s 'Set up a date' service will surely charm you. We haven't seen this feature being offered by the other dating sites we have reviewed ever. This unique service allows you to visit a member’s country and organise an in-person date with the utmost comfort and safety.

You must have 625 credits on your account and both parties must consent to this. The site guarantees safety to all their users by having a policy that the first meeting should be held only in the girl’s home country. The meeting should only take place in a public location (e.g. a restaurant). The specialists from the local partner’s side, including English speaking interpreters, will accompany the partner.

If you decide to change your plans after a 'Set up a date' request, you may cancel it at any time before the meeting has been approved. In the case of a successful cancellation, 625 credits will be put back into your account. To cancel your request for a real meeting, you need to click on 'Cancel meeting' and optionally submit the cancelling reason.

Flowers and Presents

The site’s “Flowers and Presents” delivery service will surely be a hit for those who prefer the old-school type of courting. In this, you can exchange flowers, perfumes, fruit baskets, teddy bears, chocolates, and gift cards with a personalised greeting.

To send a present or flowers, go to the member’s profile page. Under the chatbox, you can see the ‘Flowers and Presents’ button. Click the button and a page with a selection of gifts will open. Select the gifts you want to send, write a postcard message, and click the 'Order' button at the bottom of the page.

Editors Conclusion

With fun and quirky features combined with a clean design layout, you will surely be charmed by AsiaCharm. Instead of a monthly membership, you must purchase credits in order to avail of its premium features. The best thing about that, though, is that you can just buy a few credits to test the waters first. Indeed, we had our reservations about the authenticity of some of the profiles. But overall, AsiaCharm delivers on its promise of connecting you with real Asian beauties. Sign up now and find happiness in just a few clicks!

Cost

Are AsiaCharm services free?

You can easily browse profiles for free. However, to access the premium features such as viewing private photos, chatting with other members, exchange contact details, order a gift delivery, you will need to purchase credits in separate packages.

The first package of 20 credits gives you the basic access to communication features of the site as well as the ability to purchase bigger credit packages. You can choose among various packages ranging from 20 to 750 credits.

To make a payment, navigate to the 'Credits' tab or press the 'Upgrade' button. If you have complimentary credits, you must spend them first.

Usability

When you are both ready to take your virtual relationship to the next step, you can use the 'Set up a date' service.

This unique service allows you to visit a member’s country and organise an in-person date with the utmost comfort and safety. To request a meeting, you should do the following:

Have your account verified with the 'ID Confirmation form'

625 credits available on your account (NOTE: This fee doesn’t include your travel expenses and translation services. According to the site, the first hour of translation services is free. Additional hours are discussed with the member’s local partner separately.)

The member has to agree to meet you

If you meet all of the above requirements, visit the profile page of the member you’d like to meet. Next, click on the 'Set up a date' button in the middle part of the page; you will then be required to provide your contact details, as well as the proposed date and time of arrival to the member’s home city.

The local partner needs up to 72 hours to process the request. As soon as the meeting is confirmed or rescheduled, you will be notified about the change in the status of your request in your statistics menu in 'My meeting requests'.

A specialist from the local partner’s side or a moderator may decline the meeting. In this case, the option 'Show reason' will appear next to your request. If the meeting is declined, 625 credits will be refunded back into your account.

After your request is approved by the member, our partners in the member’s home city will contact you to arrange all the details.

How do I start chatting with members?

AsiaCharm offers two ways of starting a new conversation: letters and chats messages.

Letters are ideal for longer messages, such as introducing yourself, describing how your vacation went, and explaining what you are looking for in a partner. Also, letters allow you to attach up to 20 free photos.

Chat messages are suitable for day-to-day communications and short messages. Once you have chosen a member to chat with, visit their profile page to start chatting directly:

Type your message

Click the ‘Send Message’ button or press ‘Enter’

NOTE: You can disable the ‘Enter’ button for sending messages by unchecking the checkbox under the ‘Send photo’ button

I can’t upload a picture in chat.

To send a photo on AsiaCharm, navigate to the 'Messages' tab (you can find it at the top of the page). Access the list of members located on the left side of the screen to find the member to whom you wish to send a photo.

Click the 'Send photo' button and select the photo you want to send.

Alternatively, you can go to the 'Full chat history' with a member and upload any picture there.

How do I send gifts or flowers on AsiaCharm?

With the site’s “Flowers and Presents” delivery service, you can exchange flowers, perfumes, fruit baskets, teddy bears, chocolates, and gift cards with a personalised greeting.

Select the gifts you want to send, write a postcard message, and click the 'Order' button at the bottom of the page.

Why can’t I send a chat message/mail to the member on AsiaCharm?

If you are having trouble sending messages (e.g. messages disappear), check your credits balance. It costs 2 credits per minute for chats and 10 credits for the first letter plus 30 credits for each consecutive letter.

Note that the chat option is only available when members are online. You can send letters to members at any time, and they will see your correspondence once they log on again. If you’d still like to send a chat message while the member is offline, go to the Messages section and enter the member’s name in the search field located on the left side of the page.

If you can’t send an email, be informed that the site has a minimum of 150 characters and a maximum of 3500 characters requirement for each letter. Until your message is at least 150 characters long, the 'Send' button will remain inactive.

If you are still having trouble with sending messages, contact the Support Team.

Why did a member decline my contact request on AsiaCharm?

The most common reason for declining a request is an unwillingness to share contact information, preferring to get to know you better before continuing your communication via email or phone.

In such cases, it would be advisable to contact the member directly.

How do I search for members?

AsiaCharm’s search engine allows you to browse a vast range of members. Alternatively, you can narrow your search results to a specific set of members. To search for a partner, you can use any of the following options:

The easiest way to ensure you are able to find a potential match again is to add them to your Favourites list. Of course, if you are truly interested, don’t hesitate to write them a message or send them a wink or a like.
